ok, i just did some tuning and decide to take my cousin for a cruise in it afterwards. we head out to a main thouroughfare and after two lights this guy in a neon tries to race me. form the first light he hits it as i am just cruising in 2nd gear, i wait til he gets up to me and hit it; i leave him behind so fast that i have to lay on the brakes for him to catch up to me and then hit it again to further humiliate him. at the second light is where it gets interesting; i launch at about 3500 rpm (just wanting to see how my car does after tuning it a bit tonight) and i am across the intersection while the neon is about 1/3 of the way thru, i miss second (damn flip flops) and am still pulling on the neon, as i look back as i shift to 3rd i see a cop sitting at the light on the cross street where we just took off. he doesnt do a thing! i didnt see the cop because i was sitting a bit back from the line and behind the neon to where he was blocking my view of the cop. anyway, just thought that was kind of funny seeing how the cop apparently was not watching or could not hear anything.

 

haha you lucky SOB.

I guess he just got off duty and didn't give a crap. Usually they'll nail you anyway.

 

or you guys are that slow...he did not notice

 

hahaha!!!

Im sure that the cop just didnt want to give you a ticket.. or maybe he was on his way to a call?? lol

 

or just wanted to see a domestic whoop a neon

 

LMAO... I think we have a winner!

 

I've had 3 experiences where a cop has blatently flashed his lights or tailed me for "drag racing" where I didn't know they were around and they wanted to show they could have nailed my *** if they wanted to. I guess there is an advantage to driving domestics from time to time. I should say that 2 of those 3 were when I've been messing around with my buddy's corvette so maybe we just have domestic loving cops around here or something

 

Since when did Neons become imports?

 

he didn't call it an import.

 

Some cops are cool and dont care.... My uncle has a friend thats a state trooper in northern new england somewhere I forget and he says at like 1-4 in the morning they race each other on the highway, and they will race just normal people in there stangs, camaros, etc. and they screw around like in that movie super troopers.
